Default RE: Just got my LSR...

Man thats a list... In all seriousness (is that even a word? ) id calm down a lil... I run my somewhat modded LSRR hard almost daily at the track and have yet to really need to upgrade much other than the usual. I run a Picco .26, fironi slider clutch, Jammin JP-1 pipe, hitec/ace servos, racers edge kyosho hubs, Airtronis MX3S rdaio (when it gets back from airtronics), 5 cell rx pack and thats pretty much it... Its nice to go all out and get all the stuff and bling, but in the end, you have empty pockets and a very nice truck. I run the stock shocks, arms, everything... never had a serious problem. I broke the stock servos within the first few days breaking it in, but thats normal... blew the front shafts (HB mfg error), hubs, and one of the steering plastic links... all 3 diffs (swapped to hard metal) and thats it other than the normal clutchbell bearings and such. I run my truck HARD, and im even running it in parking lots with foam tires just for kicks, with next to no problems. I run the stock bell/gearing and with the picco, I have more probs with traction than anything. Im currently running cut bowties (narrowed) on offset maxx sized dish wheels, the plastic blocks on the arms, everything... nothing real serious has broken (knock on wood). But if thats what you wanna do, go ahead, its your truck/money... Im just more of a guy that mods as i break em, not all at once... But you'll love the truck... just make sure you get it to the track on a regular basis, or she'll get mad at you, throw a tantrum and distroy herself
